On Oct. 6, the men’s tennis team won Semistate, allowing it to advance to the State Finals that is to be held against Center Grove at CHS on Oct. 12.

“The guys played really well,” Head Coach Mike Bostic said after the team defeated Muster High School.  “Munster always plays with a high level of emotion, and I thought we matched that today.”

The CHS tennis team moves to the State Finals with a chance to bring home the title for the third time in a row. Sameer Kumar, number-1 singles player and sophomore said via email, “I feel good. I’m really excited for this opportunity.”

With this being Kumar’s first year as number-1 singles position, his nerves will play a factor in the championship match. “(I am) a little bit (nervous). But I’m definitely very excited,” Kumar said.

The two day match will begin on Oct. 12 at the Todd Witsken Tennis Center. The final matches will be played at North Central on Oct. 13.
